In present embodiment, drive control section 10 can continue the ambient enviroment phase for constructing and updating with persistently change at any time Corresponding driving scene.It should be noted that the relevant information of the ambient enviroment for constructing driving scene, can be used detection The information that portion 20 detects.
As drive control section 10, control used in common automatic driving vehicle or drive supporting vehicle can be used With arithmetic processing apparatus etc..Existing arithmetic processing apparatus can be used in drive control section 10 in present embodiment, but refers to Fig. 2 and Fig. 3 can carry out the specific drive control of vehicle drive portion 30 as described later under specific running environment.
Vehicle drive portion 30 has speed adjustment section 31 and steering portion 32.The acceleration that speed adjustment section 31 passes through progress vehicle The speed of vehicle is adjusted with braking.Steering portion 32 adjusts the direction of travel of vehicle by adjusting the direction of wheel.
As speed adjustment section 31, the accelerator pedal and braking that occupant side can be operated in manual drive can be used Device, vehicle side carry out ECU (control unit of engine) of engine control etc..As steering portion 32, occupant can be used can Wire-controlled steering system (ス テ ア リ Application グ バ イ ワ イ ヤ シ ス テ system) that the transfer of operation, vehicle side are controlled etc..
Test section 20 is the component of situation, state, environment outside detection car etc., is the surrounding's ring at least detecting vehicle The component from the vehicle-state of vehicle and other vehicles etc. is preferably detected in border.It, can as the coherent detection object of vehicle-periphery To enumerate other vehicles and barrier etc..As the coherent detection object of vehicle-state, can enumerate from vehicle and other vehicles Position, direction of travel, velocity and acceleration etc..
As test section 20, various sensors, camera etc. specifically can be used, the detection of ambient enviroment can also pass through Communication device obtains information from outside.
Fig. 2 is combined herein, and the running environment for the informing device 1 that present embodiment can be used is illustrated.Shown in Fig. 2 More trolleys be all to the i.e. state of traveling ahead above attached drawing.Vehicle A shown in the substantially central portion of Fig. 2 is certainly Vehicle is other vehicles in vehicle B, C, D, E and the F travelled from around vehicle A.Other vehicles B, C and D from vehicle A substantially after Side's traveling, other vehicles E are travelled in substantially front or the traveling ahead from vehicle A, other vehicles F from the side of vehicle A.
It should be noted that as other vehicles relative to the region division from the rear that vehicle A is travelled, front and side, It can suitably be defined as long as it can reach the purpose of the present invention, such as can be by being mounted on the various biographies of automatic driving vehicle etc. It in sensor and camera, is used according to rear detection, front detection is used and side is detected and divided with respectively detectable region.? That is the vehicle detected by rear detecting sensor etc. become relative to from vehicle A behind other vehicles; The vehicle detected by front detecting sensor etc. become relative to from vehicle A traveling ahead other vehicles;Pass through side The vehicle that square detecting sensor etc. detects becomes relative to other vehicles travelled from vehicle A in side.
Automatic Pilot control and drive supporting control include: reply control, be used to hide around travel vehicle and Risk factor caused by the various objects such as barrier;And common traveling control, for for need to hide it is dangerous because The Driving control of normally travel when element is not present or seldom controls without coping with.It is shown in Fig. 2 from vehicle A and other vehicles B~F The following distance that can be driven safely each other respectively is remain, is not not hide other vehicles B~F rapidly from vehicle A vehicle will occur The dangerous situations such as contact.That is, running environment shown in Fig. 2 is to carry out automatic Pilot control and drive supporting The state of common traveling control in control, i.e., can be in common driving status downward driving from vehicle A.It should be noted that detecting In the various objects that portion 20 is detected, risk factor is to be judged as only allowing the factor hidden from vehicle and be just able to maintain safety traffic.
In the state of the automatic Pilot control or the control of height drive supporting that carry out vehicle by above-mentioned drive control section 10 Under, for example, when limited highway etc. when driving, the Ordinary Rd that may exist with crossroad, other vehicles, pedestrian etc. It compares, the variation from the ambient enviroment of vehicle is less.But even when automatic Pilot controls or when drive supporting controls, with hand Identical when dynamic driving, occupant must also monitor ambient enviroment.Occupant is difficult that concentrated force is kept constantly to monitor around consistent Environment.When occupant declines the concentrated force that surrounding monitors, even if infuse by visual prompting using HUD etc. in car room Meaning shows and is informed that occupant is also possible to not to be noted show content.
Then, in conjunction with Fig. 3 of flow chart, to using control flow when informing device 1 shown in FIG. 1 to be illustrated.
Firstly, being driven according to the relevant drive signals of the acceleration-deceleration of the vehicle exported to vehicle drive portion 30 and steering Control unit 10 differentiates that whether there is or not automatic Pilot control or drive supporting controls (step S1).This step only differentiates that whether there is or not Driving controls The control that portion 10 itself is carried out, therefore can differentiate that whether there is or not driving signals.When drive control section 10 is defeated to vehicle drive portion 30 Can serve as out drive dominant right driving signal wholly or largely when, due to can differentiate be vehicle automatic Pilot control State processed or drive supporting state of a control, therefore it is transferred to next step ("Yes" of step S1).If not exporting the driving signal, Then this control flow terminates ("No" of step S1).
Then, drive control section 10 carries out the automatic Pilot control or drive supporting control of vehicle, and drive control section 10 discriminate whether commonly to travel state of a control (step S2).This step is identical as previous step (step S1), and differentiates have The control that no drive control section 10 is carried out itself, therefore, when having the relevant drive signals of common traveling state of a control to vehicle When driving portion 30 exports, alternatively, when in the ambient enviroment in vehicle there is no whens the barrier etc. for needing to hide etc. replies control, It can be determined as commonly travelling state of a control, therefore be transferred to next step ("Yes" of step S2).When no commonly traveling control Relevant drive signals output when, alternatively, when test section 20 detect barrier etc. and export reply control coherent signal when, Then this control flow terminates ("No" of step S2).
Then, differentiate that whether there is or not other vehicles (step S3) at the substantially rear from vehicle.In this step, when test section 20 is certainly When the substantially rear of vehicle detects other vehicles, it is transferred to next step ("Yes" of step S3).When test section 20 is from vehicle When substantially other vehicles are not detected in rear, then keep common traveling state of a control and terminate this control flow (step S3's "No").
It should be noted that as other vehicles in the substantially behind from vehicle, such as can enumerate shown in Fig. 2 Other vehicles B, C and D.In present embodiment, if not depending on lane to detect from the rear of vehicle rear side test section institute energy Other vehicles detected, then as the vehicle in the substantially behind from vehicle.
Other vehicles are determined in the vehicle ("Yes" of step S3) of substantially behind, drive control section 10 is to vehicle Driving portion 30 carries out the acceleration from vehicle and controls (step S4).By this step, when detecting as shown in Figure 2 its at substantially rear When other vehicles as his vehicle B, C and D etc., occupant can be allowed to feel acceleration by carrying out the acceleration control from vehicle Degree.It allows occupant to feel that acceleration belongs to not against vision, the informing of the sense of hearing, therefore feels that the occupant of acceleration can feel to send out What has been given birth to, and then can be appreciated that the state and situation from vehicle.That is, occupant can be appreciated that the running environment from vehicle.
Running environment is with low uncertainty in common traveling state of a control, therefore occupant is easy drop to the concentrated force that surrounding monitors It is low.By the informing mode of informing device 1, even if occupant does not monitor surrounding, or even if the precision of surrounding monitoring reduces, also can Occupant is supervised to understand running environment.
It should be noted that in above embodiment, when carrying out automatic Pilot control or the control of height drive supporting The acceleration control that will do it when being in common driving status from vehicle A from vehicle A, and when detecting that needs pass through reply in the present invention When controlling hide equal regulation object, or when carrying out reply and controlling, the acceleration control from vehicle can also be carried out Uniform velocity adjustment control processed.As a result, under the situation for needing to recognize ambient enviroment compared with common driving status, it can supervise Around occupant monitors, therefore it is preferred that.
When sensor appropriate or camera etc. detect the objects such as other vehicles or barrier, need to carry out by adding Speed deceleration and steering etc. control to hide the reply of the object etc..The dominant right of driving is transferred from vehicle side in view of when urgent A possibility that occupant side, if object close to since vehicle and in the state of become carrying out reply control just supervise occupant Understand running environment, then when being switched to the manual drive of occupant's progress, the reply for object may be late.Therefore, Informing device of the invention can supervise occupant to understand and carrying out the acceleration control of vehicle under commonly traveling state of a control Running environment, the situation for cope with control be directed to occupant are ready.
In addition, when reply control is put into Driving Scene, or when reply control has begun, for of the invention The control that informing device is carried out, preferably replacement (submit a written statement to a higher authority I) force the control for the acceleration releasing for carrying out vehicle to carry out.Such as This one, relative to the control that informing device of the invention is carried out, preferential to control should carry out.Specifically, being answered when generating Necessity to control or when carrying out reply control, preferably stops the acceleration of vehicle, while continuing before the acceleration control of vehicle The driver behavior carried out.The shape of the common traveling control of the progress before accelerating control can be returned to approximately from vehicle and occupant as a result, State.That is, accelerate control before running environment with produce carry out reply control status running environment because of Stop accelerating control and variation is smaller, so as to reduce deviation, occupant is made not feel good, seamlessly understand traveling ring Border.
In addition, in this case, when detecting the regulation object that hide or ought answered above-mentioned It is carried out when to control from after this control of the speed adjustment control of vehicle, the preferably replacement control of progress the method.Thus, it is possible to Restore the concentrated force that occupant monitors surrounding, and occupant can without sense of discomfort be supervised to understand running environment.
In present embodiment, the presence or absence of automatic Pilot control or the control of height drive supporting shown in Fig. 3 and common row It sails the presence or absence of control to differentiate in step S1 and S2 respectively, but in the present invention, as long as can differentiate that occupant's concentrated force can decline Situation, then can also complete to differentiate in one step.
In the present invention, as long as from vehicle acceleration control duration and acceleration degree occupant can with somatosensory to The time of acceleration and degree can be then appropriately arranged with.
Fig. 4~6 shown below are indicated in the case where being different from the running environment of running environment of control flow shown in Fig. 3 The flow chart of control flow when using informing device 1 shown in FIG. 1.
Control flow shown in Fig. 4 is to be divided in other vehicles from the substantially behind of vehicle with traveling lane to carry out Other controls.
Firstly, as shown in figure 4, progress automatic Pilot control or height drive supporting control, and drive control section 10 is sentenced The step of not whether not being common Driving control state (step S1 and step S2) and drive control section 10 differentiate from vehicle substantially The step of whether there is or not other vehicles at rear (step S3) is identical as control flow shown in Fig. 3.
Then, when detecting there are being other vehicles as other vehicles B, C and D shown in Fig. 2 from the substantially rear of vehicle A When ("Yes" of step S3), drive control section 10 can differentiate other vehicles that previous step (step S3) detects whether with from vehicle In same lanes (step S5).In this step, when other vehicles for finding to detect according to the testing result of test section 20 Relationship as above-mentioned other vehicles B and from vehicle A with next step (step S5, in same lanes, is transferred to from vehicle "Yes").When other vehicles with from vehicle in same lanes ("Yes" of step S5), with control flow phase shown in Fig. 3 Together, it carries out the acceleration from vehicle and controls (step S4).
In addition, when other vehicles that detect as above-mentioned other vehicles C and D with the relationship from vehicle A not and from garage It sails at same lane, that is, when traveling is at other lanes ("No" of step S5), then progress is controlled and braked from the acceleration of vehicle At least one (step S41) in control.
(step S4) either is controlled from the acceleration of vehicle, or acceleration control or control for brake (step S41) from vehicle, all It can allow occupant with somatosensory to acceleration, therefore understanding of the occupant to running environment may be implemented.When other vehicles at rear In same lanes, though other vehicle abnormalities close in the case where, be also easy to be transferred to from from the acceleration of vehicle control Reply for hiding other vehicles controls.In addition, when other vehicles at rear are in other lanes, even if in other vehicles In the case that exception is close, due to lane difference, with the same lane the case where compared with the emergency hidden it is low, so there is no need to Acceleration control must be carried out, control for brake can also be carried out.In addition, in the case where other lanes, it can also be by temporary It carries out carrying out control for brake on the basis of acceleration control, (can also be in reverse order) allows acceleration to change, from body Sensuously differentiated with the case where same lane.
It should be noted that the control for brake from vehicle in the present invention not only includes the mode slowed down using brake, also It may include releasing accelerate the mode of control, release the mode of Driving control for keeping certain speed etc..
Then, control flow shown in fig. 5 is to carry out other controls according to the traveling-position of other vehicles.
